  • Title: [Myocardial infarct complicated by a posterior aneurysm of the left ventricle. Correction by resection and double coronary bypass. 1-year clinical and angiographic follow-up].
    Author: Dor V, Lévy P, Schmitt R, Kreitmann P.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1977 Mar; 70(3):295-9. PubMed ID: 404988.
    Abstract:
    5 months after a posterior infarction, a man of 48 was found to have a posterior aneurysm with right coronary thrombosis and anterior inter-ventricular stenosis. A total treatment approach (resection of the aneurysm + double bypass graft) led to a stable clinical cure, which has been monitored one year later by ventriculography and coronary arteriography. The authors make the comment, however, that in this case surgery was more in the way of a safety measure than a necessity.
